Sacred City of Caral The Sacred City of Caral-Supe is located in the province of Barranca, Lima Region. It is the oldest manifestation of civilization in Peru and in the American continent due to its 5000 years of antiquity. It is made up of 32 monumental buildings, comprised in a complex system of settlements that show a strong religious ideology, among which there are ceremonial buildings, residential sectors for people of different social rank, a group of smaller temples and workshops for production. Caral led a system of settlements that brought together 17 similar sites, although smaller, located in the Supe valley. It expresses the complexity and development of an early socio-political and economic organization model during the Late Archaic Period (5000-3800 BP) originated independently by the Andean societies that inhabited this small fertile valley of the central Peruvian coast.
